Working in Guisborough

In Guisborough we cover TS14; we also cover Redcar, 5.7 miles away, and Middlesbrough.

Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Guisborough: free survey, written quote, one team. Whatever the age of your Guisborough home, large-format tiles need flat walls, so the survey checks how much preparation they will take. Tiling quotes in Guisborough list the tile, the area and the preparation separately, so you can compare like for like.

Supplies across most of North Yorkshire are moderately hard. Mid-tone grout and matt tiles hide the odd water mark better than dark grout and high gloss. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.

What the job includes

Grouting, trims or mitred edges, and silicone at internal corners, the bath and the tray
Tanking the shower area and the walls around the bath with a waterproof membrane or liquid system
Measuring wall and floor areas and working out quantities with an allowance for cuts
Fixing with an adhesive suited to the tile and the surface, with levelling clips for large tiles

Decisions to make first

Floor grip

For a bathroom floor, choose a matt or textured tile with a slip rating of R10 or above. Smaller tiles with more grout lines grip better in a shower.

Grout

Cement-based grout is standard. Epoxy grout resists stains and mould better and suits showers, but takes longer to apply and costs more.

Rules that apply in England

In England, tiling itself is not building regulations work. If it is part of forming a level shower floor with new drainage, that drainage can be Part H work, and any new electrics are covered by Part P.

Can you tile over existing bathroom tiles?

Sometimes, but it is rarely the right choice. Tiling over tiles adds weight, brings the wall forward so trims and fittings no longer line up, and hides any loose tiles or water damage underneath. It is only worth considering where the old tiles are firmly bonded and the wall can take the extra load.
